Condensed phase kinetics
• The kinetic theory of gases
involves ballistic motion
• Kinetics in liquids and other
condensed phases involves
diffusion
• What are the major
characteristics?
– Many molecules interacting at
once
– Short mean free paths
– No “memory” of momenta
Brownian motion
• Extreme case of
condensed phase
dynamics
• No memory of
momentum
• “Bath” provides:
– Random displacements
– Frictional damping
• Bath action related to
molecular collisions
Random walks
• Markov chain: no history
dependence
• Consider a discrete time
random walk in 1D:
– Equal probability of moving
left or right at each time step
– Position probability
distribution is binomial
– At a large number of steps,
probability becomes Gaussian
– Mean square displacement
grows linearly with time
• These are general features
of unbiased random walks
• Can be generalized to
continuous time and space

Diffusion coefficients
• What is the mean
squared
displacement per
unit time?
• For unbiased
random walks, it’s
pretty simple
• Diffusion
coefficients also
have microscopic
interpretation…

Langevin equation
• Newton’s equation with
extra terms
• Random force
dv ( t )
m
= −ζ v ( t ) + f ( t )
dt
f (t ) = 0
– Energy added by bath
– Mean force is zero
• Viscous drag
– Energy dissipated by
bath
– Related to velocity decay
times
• The viscous drag is
related to the diffusion
coefficient

v ( t ) = v ( 0 ) e −ζ t m
Viscosity and diffusion
• Solve Langevin
equation for mean
squared position
– Multiply by x and
rearrange
– Use the fact that the
mean squared velocity is
kT (Maxwell dist.)
– Solve for <xv> with
particle initially at origin
– Relate to <x2> and solve

Viscosity and diffusion
• Two time scales for mean
squared displacement
– Related to “collisional time”
– At short times, the motion is
ballistic
– At long times, the motion is
Brownian
• Velocity doesn’t matter
• RMSD can be related to
diffusion coefficient
• The friction and diffusion
coefficient are related!

The Stokes-Einstein relationship
• Stokes law provides an
expression for the
viscous drag around
various simple shapes
• This can be combined
with the MSD derivation
above
• The final relationship is
called the StokesEinstein relation

Mass action kinetics
• The rate of change in concentration or probability
• Describes a variety of phenomena: chemical
reactions, binding events, etc.
• Relates changes in concentrations with time to
(powers of) species concentrations
• Assumes large numbers of species
• Ignores fluctuations due to small copy numbers

What is a diffusion-limited reaction?
• Consider a reaction where the chemical step is
instantaneous
– All reactions which form ES complex go to products
– The rate-limiting aspect of the reaction is binding to the enzyme

Diffusion-limited reactions
•
Typical diffusional encounter rate is 109
to 1010 M-1 s-1
– There are lots of caveats, exceptions,
etc.: protein flexibility, electrostatics,
limited reaction surface
•
Smoluchowski encounter rate:
– Assumes spherical symmetry
– Based on solution of PDE
– No interactions: proportional to sum of
diffusion coefficients and separation
– Interactions: related to integral of
potential
•
•
Thought to represent evolutionary
pressure
Examples
– Superoxide dismutase
– Acetylcholinesterase
– Barstar-barnase

Methods for diffusional encounter
simulations
• Discrete methods
– Langevin dynamics
– Brownian dynamics
– Monte Carlo
• Continuum methods
– Fokker-Planck
– Smoluchowski equation
Discrete simulations of binding events
• Brownian dynamics
• Use as normal dynamics methods
– Integrate stochastic equations of motion
– Average: configurations, thermodynamics, etc. (nothing
that depends on viscosities!)
• Use as encounter simulation method
First-order BD integration
• Calculate
– Diffusion coefficient gradient
– Potential of mean force gradient
– Random displacement
• Works for large time steps provided the gradients don’t
change (much)
• Position components can be x, y, z – or separate particle
coordinates
• Coupling between particle diffusion components:
hydrodynamic interactions

Ri ( Δt ) = 0
Ri ( Δt ) R j ( Δt ) = 2 Dij Δt

BD for encounter rate calculation
• Assumptions:
– Low enzyme and substrate concentrations (no enzymeenzyme or substrate-substrate interactions)
– Diffusion control
– Implicit solvent
• Basic idea: what is the probability that two
molecules started at distance b will encounter one
another rather than wandering off to infinity?
BD for encounter rate calculation
• BD trajectory:
– Start two molecules at a
separation b where the
potential is centrosymmetric
– Integrate BD equation of
motion until
• Molecules satisfy reaction
criteria
• Molecules exceed separation
distance q
• A maximum number of steps
are taken
• Perform multiple BD
trajectories:
– Accumulate collision
frequencies
– Statistics are noisy; multiple
runs needed!

BD for encounter rate calculation
BD for diffusion-limited reactions
• Collision frequencies can
be transformed into rates
• Think: flux through reactive
site!
• If all collisions result in
reaction (diffusion-limited),
rate is related to:
– Rate of diffusion to separation
b (can use Smoluchowski
formula)
– Collision frequency
– Probability that trajectories
leaving q returns to b

Interactions in BD calculations
•
Forces
– Long-range influences only
– Electrostatics: approximate
charge-field calculations
Filig ≈ qilig E prot
• Poisson-Boltzmann calculation for
protein, charge model for ligand
• No desolvation
• Little “internal dielectric” screening
(some effective charge methods)
•
Diffusion coefficients
– Should include rotation, translation,
and configuration changes
– No hydrodynamic interactions
• Probably OK for small ligands
• Stokes-Einstein isotropic diffusion
coefficients
• Coefficients do not depend on
distance or configuration
– Hydrodynamic interactions
• Include water-mediated effects
• Oseen and other (approximate)
analytic forms
• Configuration- and distancedependent

active sites enhances
efficiency

broadening

sites

Protein-protein encounter
•
•
•
Same basic procedure as before
Reaction criteria are harder to evaluate – often a
variable in the simulation
Effective charge method
–
–
•
Use full electrostatic grid for one molecule
Use a smaller number of charges: termini and
charged residues
Usually neglect:
–
–

–
Desolvation terms
Hydrodynamic interactions (with exceptions)
Ion relaxation
Flexibility
Substrate-substrate interactions
